AfterMeditations in response to sermon on 9.17.06....
Matthew 11:28-30
28 "Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. 29 Walk with me and work with me - watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. 30 Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly."
We become disciples of Jesus only because we are desperate to abandon the forced rhythms of life AND eager to see something new and out of this world manifested in all reality. Jesus' disciples finally rest. They finally are free. And they finally give true hope to the world.
